The picture of the false teachers

The false teachers are:

first from the left, Jeffrey Khoo, the head of all of these false teachers.
third from the left, Quek SY and
fourth from the left, Prabudas Koshy.

Wolf in sheep clothing

The false teachers in FEBC in Singapore, had turned into wolves in sheep clothing from 2002 onward!

Separating from Far Eastern Bible College

“Divisions and separations are most objectionable in religion. They weaken the cause of true Christianity ...But before we blame people for them, we must be careful that we lay the blame where it is deserved. False doctrine and heresy are even worse than schism. If people separate themselves from teaching that is positively false and unscriptural, they ought to be praised rather than reproved. In such cases separation is a virtue and not a sin.” -- J.C. Ryle

People who stand with the false teachers in FEBC

There are many naive people who are standing together hands in hands with the false teachers in Far Eastern Bible College, Singapore.

Selfish ambition

The faculty members in FEBC have this "selfish ambition," in teaching Verbal Plenary Preservation.

Why this small false teaching become so big, and bigger, and bigger than God Himself, because of selfish ambition. 

2 Corinthians 12:20
For I am afraid that when I come I may not find you as I want you to be, and you may not find me as you want me to be. I fear that there may be discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, slander, gossip, arrogance and disorder.

Philippians 2:3
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,

James 3:14
But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.

James 3:16
For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.

Second Commandment

According to second commandment, we are told not to worship thing:

Do not worship things.

Do not worship even Bible, Bible is a thing God given to His people, Bible is God's Word.

Moses broke the stone tablets, when the people rebelled against God, God did not punish Moses for that, God knew the Word of God is given to man, only the Holy Spirit can make sense to the Word of God in a man's heart. God do not want us to worship His Word!

Moses broke the stone tablets!!

Text Book

The Bible is a Text Book given by God, do not worship this Text Book.

Worship the Triune God!!!

Verbal Plenary Preservation is a false teaching

A controversial doctrine is at the centre of a legal dispute between a church and its affiliated Bible college, according to the New Paper.

Life Bible-Presbyterian Church has taken the board of directors of Far Eastern Bible College to court in its attempt to force the latter to relocate for spreading deviant teachings. The church issued a writ of summons against the board of the college in September and a pre-trial conference was held on November 12.

The teaching in question, the theory of Verbal Plenary Preservation (VPP), refers to the belief that the infallible and inerrant words of Scripture are found in the Traditional/Byzantine/Majority manuscripts and fully represented in the Printed and Received Text (Textus Receptus) that underlie the Reformation Bibles best represented by the King James Version and not in the texts of Westcott and Hort that underlie the many modern versions of the English Bible like the NIV, NASV, ESV, RSV, TEV, CEV, TLB etc. according to the FEBC website. Thus, proponents of VPP hold that only the KJV is to be used in the Church.

The roots of the dispute were planted when in 2002 Dr Jeffrey Khoo, one of the respondents in the writ and a lecturer at FEBC, started propagating an extreme view of the doctrine at the college, according to a Lianhe Zaobao report on November 11.

This view was unacceptable to Life BPC and some other lecturers who disagreed with the extreme version resigned. Another respondent to the writ, Rev Dr Timothy Tow, who founded the church in 1950, resigned in 2003 and went on to found another church called True Life Bible-Presbyterian Church.

In January 2004, True Life BPC registered the college as a charity organisation without Life BPC's knowledge. On 8 November 2005 the elders of Life BPC stated that they had earlier agreed to put up with doctrinal differences for the sake of church harmony and greater benefit of the Christian belief as long as the college agreed not to use the church's premises to push its agenda. If it did, the elders said they would ask the college to leave the Gilstead Road premises.

July last year, Life BPC stopped the college from having free use of its premises, saying it was no longer linked to it as it was now a charity organisation. In March this year, the church wrote to the college board telling it to leave the Gilstead Road site by the end of June. When the board did not move, the church took legal action, claiming that the college has deviated from the role the church originally planned for it because of its extreme view of the VPP doctrine.

The college board has appealed to the church to respect an agreement made between the two in 1970 which allowed both groups joint trusteeship of the site where the college building sits.

A Brief Summary of Sound Translation Principles

1. A translation should always be based upon the right source text: For the Hebrew Scriptures, (i.e. the Old Testament) the Masoretic Text (Ben Chayyim, Second Rabbinical Edition, printed by Bomberg) is considered to be the Hebrew Text God has preserved for us. Over 1,000 hand-copied manuscripts of this text are still available today. For the New Testament, the Received Text as edited by Dr. Scrivener in 1894 is considered to be the most reliable. There are over 5,700 manuscripts that exist to support this text....

William Carey Bible Society stated in it's website that "...the Received Text as edited by Dr. Scrivener in 1894 is considered to be the most reliable."

Most reliable!!! They never claim perfection for any Received Text!!!

In the weekly this week (http://www.febc.edu.sg/assets/weekly2011/weekly-volviii-no17.htm) the false teachers from Far Eastern Bible College, Singapore, bring up William Carey Bible Society into picture.

The false teachers, Dr Jeffrey Khoo, Dr Quek Suan Yew and Dr Prabudas Koshy are trying to fool us that even William Carey was promoting a perfect Bible like them the false teachers, but not so, William Carey never promote any perfect Bible, even William Carey Bible Society never promote Verbal Plenary Preservation like these false teachers in Far Eastern Bible College, Singapore. The people in William Carey Bible Society just say the Received Text as edited by Dr. Scrivener in 1894 is considered to be the most reliable, ....most reliable, no perfection! 

These false teachers wanted to mislead us again!

Life BPC is stopped from worshipping God

"Last Lord’s Day was the very first instance in the history of our Church when worship services had to be cancelled. This decision was taken in the interest of ensuring the safety of worshippers after several hundred tons of concrete blocks from a foundation load test came crashing down on the road at a construction site across the road. This happened at about 8:25 am during our first worship service." Copied from Life B-P Church Weekly - 23 January 2011. (http://www.lifebpc.com/weekly.php)

Why this thing happened to them, this Life BP church was stopped from worshipping God on Sunday? Because some of these BP pastors are proud, and abusing some servants of God, even until today!!!

Elder Ong Eng Lam from Life Bible Presbyterian Church said:

"Now no point having this doctrine and say that we are right but never apply. The word of God is very clear! Love! For God is love! Where is the element of Love? As we have pointed out the problem with Rev Quek Suan Yew’s letter in last week’s weekly, “Mark those who caused division.” Instead of saying, “I’m sorry, I made an error or I made a mistake” This morning in Calvary Pandan’s Elder’s page he called us Satan. So Life Church Elders are Satan to Rev Quek Suan Yew."

Quoting from Sunday School - Acts Lesson 31 by Eld Sherman Ong (Adult 1 SS)

WHAT MAKE A THEOLOGIAN?

THE THEOLOGIAN HIMSELF NEEDS A BRAIN CHECKER! 

I say again:

He needs a brain checker! He must not behave like a kind of unchurch worldly people! Not a kind of people who attack his own church and his leaders! Not a kind of people like other people to divorce themselves from their pastors! Not a kind of weird people who like to abandon the old path which is the right path! Not a kind of fanatics who dreams on day and nights with self centred, self ministered, self orientation false teachings. 

But a man who lived by faith, not a man lived by sight, on those TR and quarrels! But a man lived by generations and generations, in impressing others to love God in a simple ways as possible as he can! He is a man who is called by God, "Shepherd" to nurture people in all walks of life! He Must not become a quarrelsome man! But a quite man working hard with his own hands! This I called a man with high regards!

I bless you with these few words: 

BLEST BE THE TIE THAT BINDS THEOLOGIANS AND PASTORS TOGETHER!

WHAT MAKES YOU A CHRISTIAN? 

SOME THEOLOGIANS FORGET ALL ABOUT THIS STATEMENT!

Church seeks to expel bible college from premises, ASHAMED

Tuesday, January 26, 2010


By Zul Othman, TODAY | Posted: 26 January 2010 0836 hrs

SINGAPORE: The two organisations have co-existed on the same plot of land for 40 years. 

But now, the Life Bible Presbyterian Church is seeking to expel the Far Eastern Bible College (FEBC) from its Gilstead Road premises because of a split in ideologies. 

On Monday, the church took its case before the High Court, which is now in the unusual position of being asked, in effect, to decide on a matter of religious doctrine. 

The church's lawyers said Monday that the college's new doctrine is "alien" to FEBC and "therefore has altered the identity of the college and the nature and basis of the joint use of the church's premises". 

However, lawyers representing FEBC denied the college was part of the church; an agreement made in 1970 between the two parties clearly spell out the parties' respective rights and obligations in regard to the Gilstead Road land, they said. 

Relations between the two parties soured sometime in 2002 when Dr Jeffrey Khoo, who was then academic dean of FEBC, began to propagate and rally support for a new doctrine called the Verbal Plenary Preservation, which sought to limit the veracity of the Bible to certain Hebrew and Greek sources. 

In effect, this would exclude Chinese and Indonesian translations of the King James version of the Bible, for example, said the church, which rejected the new dogma "because there is no scriptural or other basis for the assertion". 

The church said it would cause "unnecessary division and confusion". 

The unresolved controversy eventually led to the FEBC leadership forming a breakaway group and another church, registered as the True Life Bible-Presbyterian Church. 

In his opening statement, FEBC lawyer Senior Counsel Ang Cheng Hock said his clients were entitled to stay at its current premises because it had previously solicited donations and redeveloped the plot of land for the benefit of both the church and the college. 

FEBC also maintained that it has, at all times, appointed its own board of directors independently of the church, kept its own accounts and was thus managed as a separate entity, in accordance with the college's constitution. 

If it were a ministry of the church, it would have been "completely unnecessary" for both parties to spell out the parties' respective rights and obligations in regard to the land in 1970, added Mr Ang. 

The trial continues.

FEBC and Life BPC

Conflict is exacerbated when the general perception is of the other as inferior, or threatening, or demonic.

Why they want a perfect Bible in the first place?

The theologians in Far Eastern Bible College say here is the clue: 1 Corinthians 13:10 "but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away." They said the perfect refers to "perfect Bible" So, they put words into God's month. No one is sure what "the perfect" means in this verse. But these false theologians said, it is "the perfect Bible." That is why they started to teach Verbal Plenary Preservation in their Bible college. They wanted a perfect Bible so much, until churches split!

Sin of killing priests in Bible Presbyterian Churches in Singapore

Life Bible Presbyterian's elders, pastors and leaders do not care whether you are dead or alive when you are in the mission field, they do not care the life of of a priest or pastor, what they care is what doctrine you are holding on to, they do not care whether you have rice in your bowl or not, but they care how long you are going to walk in fundamentalism. They do not care whether you are sick or not, what they are caring for is whether you are faithfully serving the Lord at this moment. Most of the time they care nothing about you, they dislike those pastors who are no in good term with them, you must behave like one of them, nice to them, if you want them to support you. This proven that they do not have love in their heart, they do not have charity for their fellow pastors, but they care only for doctrines, Bible truth and teachings. They are cruel in other words, they do not care if you are dying nor living, that is sin of killing priest in old testament times. This is an act of sacrilege against the church. They are committing Sin of Sacrilege in fundamentalism. Many pastors are accused of committing a sacrilege because they do not care for missionary, pastors and priests who are working in Bible Presbyterian Churches. These leaders are selfish, and they are going to be judged accordingly. Revenge is from the Lord. Still they are happy go lucky even until now, they like to say to people, if you perish, you perish.
